Archer.

I’m going to assume this is for the appearance rating ask meme since that’s the last one i reblogged

Not My Type | Alright | Cute | Adorable | Pretty | Gorgeous | LORD MERCY

tbh that style is pretty meh to me

IT HAS COME TO MY ATTENTION THAT THAT WAS NOT THE INTENDED PURPOSE AND THIS WAS IN FACT FOR ANOTHER ASK MEME (The RPG class one).

THANK YOU FOR MAKING ME AN ARCHER.

How much prep will we need?

Whatever you feel you need. Getting a journal or settling on a note-taking format, figuring out what world you want to work on, cancelling all contact with the outside world.

A quick question, what is the time period for this group?

Hello and good afternoon!  Thank you for your interest in our group.  We currently do not have a set timeline for the group, however the majority of our players prefer post-XY for their main verse.

Of course, if there is a certain event that you’d like to explore that is not post-game, such as the protags exploring Team Rocket HQ (in HGSS events, for example), you and your partner have the freedom to do that, too.  I encourage everyone to write and explore any possibility that their creativity leads them!

I sure hope this has answered your question, my friend.  If you have any more questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to ask.  Enjoy the rest of your day!

I'm a roleplayer, and I can't seem to find confidence in my writing. I always feel inferior, like if I have room few characters or my word count is too low. I think I lack the fancy things other writers have, such as years of experience and fancy commissioned pictures of my characters. How can I improve my writer's self-esteem?

Do you write about your character when not actively RPing? Your own side stories? Have you gone beyond whatever character sheet you might have used per your GM and fleshed out your character even more? Get comfortable with your character. Play around with them in a setting or even an AU (alternate universe) of your own creation. 

A little writing every day is better, in general, than trying to write 5000 words at one time, too. So do a little bit whenever and wherever you can. Don’t be afraid to just sit down and daydream about your character(s), either. 

This will get you more comfortable with your character, but you have to remember that those 97 pages of backstory are all in your head; it’s now up to you to get some (probably not all, lol) of that information into the game/story. 

This is a good guide about being a good player, although it’s meant for tabletop RPGs so some of the points are irrelevant if this is an online game. Here’s a little more about building a story about your character, too. 

We have a tag for roleplaying; the first post you’ll see has an incredibly long list of resources. I recommend sitting in front of a computer screen rather than your phone, because it is a lot to take in. Check the links for topics that look interesting and helpful. Take notes, by hand or in a document. You might want to go to the main tags page and do the same thing there, too. 

Once you’re comfortable with your character, ask around to see if someone in the group or fandom or wherever you are RPing might want to practice RP with you. This will give you a chance to ask questions, like “am I missing cues about what I should be saying or doing or typing?” without worrying about interrupting a story flow. Because you might just be suffering a little stage fright if you are expected to “perform” during a special event with lots of people.
